All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball

Before the start of the second round of the draft, at the end of the first round, the Hawks and the Celtics, who traded up picks, selected Serge Ibaka and Nicolas Batum respectively.

Before suffering a serious injury, Ibaka, who was 208 centimeters tall and weighed 108 kilograms, had excellent lateral movement ability.

Coupled with his excellent model and experience playing in the Spanish league, the Eagles management is very optimistic that he can reduce the pressure on the defensive end of the family in the new season. (Note ①)

In this way, the inside combination of Gasol and Ibaka, and the forward and defensive combination of Smith and Wade...

I have to say, it’s really terrifying to have that many billions.

Of course, in Su Feng's view, this was not something he needed to worry about before the Eagles came out of the monster room in the east.

Just next year......

What if James and Webber meet again in the playoffs...

It is very likely that this time, Zhan Bao will be beaten to the point of autism by Wei Bao.

In contrast, the Celtics traded up draft picks to select Batum...

It's entirely because Bird and Karl are too afraid of Su Feng...

Because during the trial with Batum, Batum's wingspan and mobility left a deep impression on the Celtics front office...

So after much thought, Bird insisted that if the Celtics want to defend their title next year, they must first be prepared to compete with the Lakers.

In Bird's view, Mr. Allen, Stackhouse and Ray Allen alone are not enough to ensure that the Celtics can effectively restrict Su Feng when they encounter the Lakers.

In short, others are not optimistic about the Lakers after Kobe's return, but Bird and Karl do not dare to draw such a conclusion.

Because of how painful it was to be beaten by Su Feng's team in the past...

At this moment, they were in awe of Su Feng.

In addition, the Digital Man also selected George Hill at the end of the first round.

Because Snow is no longer as brave as he once was, the digital man is in urgent need of a new tool man who can take into account both defense and dribbling to help the old Aitou.

Hill, who is 188 centimeters tall, has a pair of enviable long arms and an excellent defensive attitude. Therefore, the digital front office team is very optimistic that he can replace Snow.

One thing to say.

The quality of the rookies in the 2008 class is indeed very high.

Because after the first round of the draft, there are currently players in the second round pool such as "Slovenian Sniper" Dragic, "Prince of Cameroon" Mbah a Moute, and "Balkan White Bear" Pekovic.

With the tenth pick in the second round, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, the Lakers selected Dragic after spending part of their cash to trade up the draft pick.

If we say that in the new season, under the premise that both Marion and Su Feng can serve as power forwards...

Since the Lakers don't have the extra inside resources to train Ibaka, Jordan, who can hone his defensive skills with Ben and only needs to use his athletic talent on the defensive end to help the Lakers guard the penalty area of ​​the second team, is the Lakers' best player this year. The best solution in the draft...

In Su Feng's view, Dragic is the best dribbler God has arranged for this Lakers team.

The 22-year-old Dragic is 191 centimeters tall.

And it is different from the "191" cm that Nash's cushion socks can achieve...

Because Dragic's height is real.

Therefore, in terms of model, Dragic is enough to ensure that he will not suffer against most guards in this league.

You know, being a "dribble guard" for the Lakers is a technical job.

Because Kobe has always had extremely high standards for his teammates' defensive attitude...

So on the free agent market….

For a while, the Lakers really couldn't find anyone more suitable for this team than Dragic.

Although Dragic is not good at defense, for Su Feng, who has worked with Iverson, Nash, Xiao Mo and others...

It’s true.

Dragic is definitely the "best defensive player" among them.

In addition, as an international player, Dragic also has a good basket.

In addition, he is also a left-handed general who can often have some miraculous effects when breaking through. Therefore, under the guidance of outstanding seniors such as Su Feng and Kobe, Su Feng believes that Dragic will definitely be able to feel it by then. What is the "best" growth environment for point guards in the NBA?

To put it bluntly, with Su Feng and Kobe here, Dragic can gain a foothold in the NBA just by relying on models and a basket.

Therefore, no matter how long his growth cycle is, the Lakers don't need to worry about it.

You know, according to the needs of different positions, choose the most suitable players to complete the team building...

This is what a general manager like Kupchak who understands the game should do.

And just listen to the player names and select players through God's perspective...

Then, due to the inability to provide these young people with the environment and soil they need to grow, the growth trajectories of these players have deviated...

In the end, we had to forcefully turn these people into All-Stars...

This is a plot that only appears in a certain eggplant.

In Su Feng's previous life, even if he averaged more than ten minutes of playing time per game in the first two seasons of his career with the Clippers, Jordan could make an impact immediately after playing.

And Ibaka.......

If you can't give him enough playing time, no matter how good he is, doesn't he still have to sit by the water cooler and watch waving towels to his brothers?

And when Su Feng, Kobe, and Marc are the core of the future Lakers...

Where will the Lakers find an insider like Jordan who doesn't need resources, is willing to do dirty work, and is willing to grab offensive rebounds and block positions for his brothers?

In the new season, the Lakers, who will definitely have to challenge for the championship, cannot and cannot consider the feelings of taking care of young players.

Therefore, Jordan and Dragic, who can be tool men in terms of characteristics and functions, are undoubtedly the two most suitable pieces of the puzzle for the current Lakers.

…

After the draft was over, Su Feng immediately called Ben.

Because Jordan's free throw shooting percentage in the early years of his career was notoriously bad, in order to prevent this guy from being cut down as soon as he came on the court in the new season, Su Feng knew that he had to let DeAndre Jordan improve his free throw shooting percentage. OK.

And as the number one urinal expert in the league today...

Who else has more say in improving free throw shooting than Ben?

ha?

You mean O'Neal?

Excuse me.

Because as a player with four championship rings in his hand, O'Neal did not want people to only remember him as holding a urinal in the future, so shortly after arriving in Cleveland, O'Neal changed back to his free throw shooting action.

therefore.......

There is no doubt about it.

In terms of how to improve his free throw shooting percentage, Ben is definitely recognized as the number one active player.

After the free agent market opened this summer, he hoped to stay in the Lakers with a veteran's basic salary to assist Su Feng.

Therefore, when he learned that Su Feng hoped that he could coach Jordan's free throw shooting, Ben knew very well...

Brother Feng.......

Sure enough, I still love him!

After all, if he didn't plan to renew his contract, how could Brother Feng entrust him with such an important task?

"Don't worry, Sue.

You don't need another shooting coach for him.

Because before the start of the new season, I guarantee that this kid can shoot more than 70% of his free throws. "On the phone, Ben issued a military order to Su Feng.

Su Feng was also happy about the military order issued by Da Ben.

Although in his original time and space, as long as Jordan could get an excellent shooting coach, theoretically, even if he didn't have to carry a urinal, he could train his free throw percentage to over 70%.

But if using the urinal can make Jordan's free throws better...

So why not?

Of course, in addition to letting Ben coach Jordan in free throws, Su Feng knew that he still had to hire a shooting coach for Jordan.

But then again...

There are indeed many coaches in the NBA who take the team's salary and do nothing.

Because in Su Feng's previous life, the Mavericks' shooting coach used his strength to explain how good the previous Clippers' shooting coach was.

In Su Feng's original time and space, because he had been unable to effectively improve Jordan's free throw shooting percentage on the court, the Clippers' shooting coach, like Ewing and Olajuwon in the early years, believed that they could not teach Howard to be Howard himself. Just as the talent is effective, the blame is passed to Jordan himself.

However.......

After arriving in Dallas to learn free throw shooting for a few months…

Little Jordan discovered in a trance...

It turns out that he is a unique free throw genius!

And the bloody reality was also told to people at that moment...

In the NBA, some coaches are just not as good as keyboard warriors.

In addition, after having a phone call with Ben, Su Feng also contacted Dragic through his agent.

Although when he decided to participate in the draft, Dragic had already resolved his contract with his European team and could log into the NBA at any time.

But in order to prevent this guy from worrying about not being able to play in the Lakers and choosing not to land in the NBA, Su Feng knew that he had to give Dragic reassurance first.

As a result, when I received a call from Su Feng personally...

Dragic, who was about to ask his agent to help him contact Real Madrid, was shocked!

Because he was just a second-round pick, he never expected that the noble God of Basketball would actually call and invite him in person!

Look, how far-sighted Su Feng is?

To know.......

Although Su Feng and Kobe are the idols of most young European players...

But being in the world of basketball...

As long as you are not a fool...

How could that person not know how painful it would be to play ball with these two people... Ah, how happy!

"Golan, I know you're worried that you won't be able to get more playing time with this Lakers.

But I can assure you that as long as you can strengthen your confrontation training and adapt to the NBA's three-point line in the summer, the starting point guard of the Lakers in the new season will definitely be yours. "

In fact, Su Feng had communicated with Director Lu remotely before the draft began.

Because no matter who Kupchak chooses between Ibaka and DeAndre Jordan, Dragic will definitely be the Lakers' only choice in the second round...

Therefore, after reading the report sent back by the Lakers scouts from Europe, Coach Lu firmly believed that Dragic's effect as the starting point guard in the new season would be better than that of Mo Mo.

In Coach Lu's opinion, once Kobe comes back, the Lakers will completely revolve around Su Feng and Kobe.

Therefore, Xiao Mo's characteristics determine that he has no room to play in the Lakers' starting lineup.

In contrast, Dragic not only knows how to play without the ball, but his confrontational skills developed in the European League are enough to ensure that he does not need the team to worry too much about his defense.

to be honest.

On the market, Director Lu also believes that the Lakers will not be able to find a better dribbling tool than Dragic in a short while.

Therefore, who knows how important the call Su Feng made to Dragic on this day was?

certainly.......

In Su Feng's eyes, this was entirely Kobe's fault!

Because if Kobe is not so independent in his game and doesn't like to fight on the court, how could Dragic have the idea of ​​returning to the European League after being drafted by the Lakers?

In Su Feng's view, if Kobe could learn more from himself...

Then he didn't even need to make the call.

But there is nothing we can do.

Because of his early years, Su Feng knew that there were indeed not many "team players" like himself.

only.......

Su Feng might not believe it. That day, after hanging up the phone, Dragic was full of expectations for his upcoming career with the Lakers...

But the reason why he came up with the idea of ​​returning to the European League...

It has nothing to do with Kobe at all.

You know, in recent years, there has been a famous saying circulating in European basketball circles:

A team with Su Feng doesn't need the No. 1 position.

Because the super guard who fell in front of the Chinese men's basketball team in European basketball has told the world...

In FIBA ​​games, you can never beat the Chinese men's basketball team, which never changes point guards.

Especially after being drafted by the Lakers...

After specifically asking my agent for a few videotapes of the Lakers last season...

Do you know how panicked the 22-year-old Dragic was when he saw that the basketball was always in Su Feng's hands?

No!

You don't know!

Because you only care about how many points Su Feng will score in the game!

Therefore, considering that I am only a second-round pick, I may not even get playing time...

In addition, even if he caught it, he could only stand aside and watch the show, so Dragic came up with the idea of ​​returning to Europe for another two years of training if it didn't work out.

However, after talking on the phone with Su Feng, Dragic finally decided to trust Su Feng.

Because in Dragic's view...

A big brother like Su Feng shouldn't be able to deceive people...

Bar?

…

At the end of June and the beginning of July, after Sun Yue participated in the Celtics' championship parade, the Chinese men's basketball team assembled with all members to officially start a new round of training for the team.

According to the training arrangement, in July, before the start of the Olympic Games, the Chinese men's basketball team will have warm-up matches with several strong European teams to adapt to the intensity of the Olympic Games in advance.

At the same time, as Su Feng expected, Ray Allen accepted Davis' call and joined the new American Dream Team led by James Jr.

In addition, in early July, the Lakers also signed contracts with DeAndre Jordan and Dragic.

In addition, Ben also received a two-year veteran's minimum salary contract.

As a new dream team that aims to restore the glory of the American men's basketball team...

In addition to the forward and defensive line led by James, Wei and Gua, veteran Kidd also accepted Davis' call.

At the U.S. men’s basketball base in Las Vegas, before the trip, USA Basketball President Colon Logie said: “We hope to be the champion in Beijing and tell the world that there are still some of the best in the birthplace of this sport. basketball.

We want to prove to the world that we are invincible! "

certainly.......

What is different from what Su Feng remembers is that American fans applauded Colon Logie's declaration...

On the Internet, just after Colon Logi made his declaration, UU Readingｗww.uukanshu.netｔ On the back foot, American fans and the American Basketball Association started to oppose...

"I only hope that in Beijing, when facing the real dream team of the Chinese men's basketball team, the boys of the American men's basketball team can let us see the 'never give up' spirit of basketball."

"Oh my God, who gave Cronlogi the confidence...

Do not make jokes!

No one can beat the Chinese men's basketball team that has both Su and Yao in 2008! "

"Hey, man, do you know how many NBA championship players there are in this Chinese men's basketball team?

If you count their assistant coach Hu...

You may not believe it, but a total of six people on their team have won NBA championships! "

"As we all know, modern football also originated in the UK, but how many years has it been since the British reached the World Cup finals?

Therefore, compared to whether the US men's basketball team can win the championship in Beijing...

I'm more concerned about when Kobe will update his training videos online. "

All right.......

Now you should know what Su Feng means to this era, right?

Because now.......

now.......

Even American basketball fans, who have always been proud, call the Chinese men's basketball team led by Su Feng the dream team of this era.

Do not ask.

Just ask...

Only a team with Su Feng can be considered a dream team!
